ActionableAgile Analytics alternative

ActionableAgile Analytics for Azure DevOps is one of the few other Marketplace extensions built specifically around flow metrics. Here's what it does well, and how it compares to Agile Gauge on price.

Prices checked September 2026. Source: the ActionableAgile Analytics for Azure DevOps Marketplace listing. We could confirm the extension's name, feature list and 30-day trial directly on the page; the Marketplace's pricing tab renders after the page loads and an automated fetch could not read the exact figures from it — the $20/month and $200/year-per-user figures below should be checked against the live pricing tab before this page is approved.

What ActionableAgile Analytics does well

It's a mature, well-regarded extension built specifically around flow metrics, with a feature set that goes beyond what Agile Gauge offers today. Its listing describes a Cycle Time Scatterplot, a Cumulative Flow Diagram, Aging Work In Progress tracking, a metrics dashboard and heat map, flow efficiency analysis — and, notably, Monte Carlo simulation for forecasting, which Agile Gauge does not currently ship (it's on our list for a future release, not v1). If forecasting is the main thing you need, it's worth a look.

Where Agile Gauge fits

Agile Gauge covers flow metrics too (Flow Metrics, Cycle Time, WIP Monitor, Aging & Blocked) alongside sprint-health views ActionableAgile's listing doesn't describe — Sprint Summary, Sprint Capacity, Next Sprint Planning, a Retro Snapshot built for the retrospective meeting itself, and Delivery Signals for following more than one team. For a small team that wants both flow and sprint reporting in one place, and doesn't need Monte Carlo forecasting specifically, Agile Gauge's base price covers two seats rather than pricing per person from the first user.

Consider ActionableAgile Analytics if…

  • Monte Carlo forecasting is what you actually need
  • You want a longer, 30-day trial before deciding
  • Flow metrics alone cover your reporting needs

Consider Agile Gauge if…

  • You also want sprint-health views (capacity, retro, next-sprint)
  • Your team is 1–2 people and per-user-from-the-start pricing adds up fast
  • You want a hard per-seat access model tied to named people

Cost for 2, 5 and 10 users

ActionableAgile Analytics prices per user from the first seat. Agile Gauge's base price covers the first two users, then adds per extra user. Both offer an annual option; ActionableAgile's trial is 30 days, Agile Gauge's is 14.

Agile Gauge: $20/month covers up to 2 users, then +$10/month per extra user, self-serve up to 10 users. Annual pricing is two months free: $200/year base, $100/year per extra user. 14-day trial, no card required — see pricing for the full terms. ActionableAgile Analytics figures above are the per-user prices stated in this page's brief, sourced to the same Marketplace listing linked above; they were not independently re-confirmed on the live pricing tab (see the note above).
